Re: [Cooker] 6Gb Ram
I also just installed redhat 9.0 to test and it does work.. One more suggestion for this group these are hyper threading processors so Redhat shows 4 processors on a dual processor machine. Mandrake is not listed on the os page that supports it. http://www.intel.com/support/platform/ht/os.htm On Mon, 2003-07-28 at 10:11, Ray Carlino wrote: Yep tried that too.

[Cooker] 6Gb Ram
Using 9.1... I have a Dell 2650 servers (9 of them) with 6GB Ram. I tried to recompile the enterprise kernel with 64GB ram support (BigMem) I still only see 4Gb ram.. Any Ideas? I tried Mandrake support and they said if that don't work then they can't help. I called Dell and they said it works with Redhat... -- Ray Carlino <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
[Cooker] enterprise kernel
I just bought 8 new Dell servers and need to put Mandrake 9.1 or 9.2 on them .. The problem is they have 6GB Ram and the enterprise kernel is only built for 4GB. So as a suggestion can you start building the kernel with 64GB support? And second is there a config file of the enterprise kernel around that I can use to rebuild with 64GB support? I want all of the same options that are built in now but more memory.. Thanks -- Ray Carlino <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
[Cooker] Mandrake 9.0 and I845G and DMA
I am having same problem with Dell 4500 machines. Is there a fix yet??? I have heard maybe 2.4.20 kernel fixes this problem. Hi all I've got a problem with my Intel I845G chipset (Asus motherboard). I reported this bug in the middle of september. The patch When the system boots I recieve the errors found in "lines from /var/dmesg". In that case it is impossible to activate the dma mode for my ide harddrive. The problem is that I need this performance for burning cdroms or watching dvds. I also tried the patch that I found in another message in this mailinglist, but the same result. It would be great if someone may help me..

Don't take away from root users let them decide if they want take the chance running as root. Linux is great because users get to make these kind of choices.

If you want to make the background a different color, fine, but do not disable important icons like the shell and kill icon!

MD8 worked fine, but ALL versions of MD8.1 have not worked at all. It does not even ask to test the video anymore, just goes directly to the 'boot x on startup' question.

I tried 4 with 3d and 4 without 3d, and have not had time to check 3 yet because I will have to reinstall to test it. When I went back to start of x windows install the screen became corrupted and was impossible to read almost anything. After install the ONLY mode that worked at all was VGA and that gave me only 640x480(though it may have been 320x200, it has been too long since I used res. like that for me to tell :-) ) That was in Beta 1.In Beta 2 even VGA mode did not work. I am using GRUB for boot manager because in 8.0 it was the only one that would work with Dell OptiPlex GX110. Could anyone help?

Re: [Cooker] Dell Perc 3 raid controller
The first part of the install it does install the megaraid module I tried to watch as the modules loaded and I get an error "file not found in archive megaraid.o" then during the hard drive detection it does not appear to see the raid controller because it scans all of the scsi ids and reports finding the 3 drives seperate but aborts because of bad partition table. then it just keeps aborting on all of the ids then finally just locks up. While using a 7.2 install all is fine it loads the megaraid module then during the harddrive detection it sees the raid controller and reports back one large drive size. BTW I did install Redhat 7.0 and 7.1 on this Dell serevr and it installed ok.. It appears that it is loading the qla1280 driver and that might be whats getting in the way. the qla1280 does not load on the 7.2 install. I even loaded the megaraid modules manually before the hard drive detection but it still can't see the raid drives.

[Cooker] Feature Idea
Again lets go back to not being only a workstation distribution. We really need a high memory server kernel prebuilt with an option to install in the server options. I don't want to go back to comparing Redhat but I did an install of the latest beta and they have that option which is real nice. I know you will say just build your own.. Not a problem but when I do have problems like now I can't get isofs to load and all I changed was the high mem option then a lot of time is wasted that could be prebuilt in... -- Ray
[Cooker] Telnet
I have done sereral install of 8.0 beta and have yet to find a place to install telnet client and server during the install. Sure I can add it later but telnet is one of the main stream programs for *nix. Also the groups are nice but there should be an everything button and then let me deselect items. Some people (developers) need to have just about everything install and don't want to go back and install packages each time they do something new. -- Ray

[Cooker] Minor Annoyances w/ Gnome Install
I don't know if this has been corrected or not in Cooker, but I thought I'd mention it, just in case. Many of the problems I've encountered (such as the problems with update-menus and the UN-alphabetized arrangement of the Gnome menus) existed in LM 7.1 as well, so I hope to see this corrected before the next release. Immediately after installation, the Gnome desktop and menus are in complete chaos as compared to neat, orderly setup in KDE. It gives the general impression that great effort was made to make KDE look as nice as possible, but that Gnome is treated as an afterthought. While I understand that KDE is the default desktop for LM, I would like to see equal attention paid to make Gnome look nice as well. What I mean by this is, as soon as I boot up for the first time after a clean install and select Gnome, the desktop I'm presented with has icons scattered randomly around the desktop. In addition, I have the gnome "piston" icons for my printer -- is there no printer icons that you can find to use with Gnome? Also, the menu items in the Gnome menu are completely scattered at random. While KDE's menus are neatly alphabetized, the Gnome menu is not. MenuDrake, at least in its current incarnation, seems to be completely broken. Any item I try to add to my menus via MenuDrake never gets added -- this goes for ALL window manager menus, not just Gnome's. I have not been able to add items to the KDE menus either.. The only time an item gets added to my menus is when I add an RPM and update-menus runs automatically. Even then, though, some items, such as RealPlayer, never get added. The only way I've found to add an item to my Gnome menus was to install the Helix update and use gmenu. This too causes problems, however, because update-menus will then remove any items I add to my menus (it will also remove any menu icons I choose too). I eventually ended up having to rename update-menus so that it couldn't execute. To sum up, I'd like to be able to use MenuDrake not only to add items to my Gnome menus, but also to arrange my menu items in the order I choose. It's much easier to find the item I'm looking for if my menus are alphabetized. Thanks, Ray Swaim

Re: [Cooker] Diskdrake unable to detect IDE drive partitions
The problem is drakx.. Fdisk reads the drive fine and the OS sees it fine after install. I can mount it without any problem but drakx still can't see it. I use the same drive with same partition with 7.1 and it works fine. Same with RH 6.x worked fine but duing the install of 7.0 I had the same problem. This is a Quantum CR13.0A drive. 1528 cyl 255 heads 63 secs. I will help with what ever I can... Here is the fdisk info. So I just run the install without partitioning this drive and after setup I just add it to fstab. I don't know why this happens on RH7 and Mandrake 7.2 The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 25228. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Command (m for help): p Disk /dev/hdd: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 25228 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes Device BootStart EndBlocks Id System /dev/hdd1 * 1 24380 12287488+ 83 Linux /dev/hdd2 24381 252284273925 Extended /dev/hdd5 24381 25228427360+ 82 Linux swap Command (m for help): On Sat, 14 Oct 2000, you wrote: > Ray <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > This is an ongoing problem nad still is not fixed.. > > The same problem happens on RH7 > > ?? what causes the pb? special hardware? is the kernel reading the > partition table or is it a DrakX pb? > > [...] > > > On Sun, 08 Oct 2000, you wrote: > > > On today's 7.2beta install, diskdrake is unable to detect partitions on > > > my IDE drives (primary and secondary) the SCSI drives are detected > > > fine, however.
